Hi,

is it possible to create RSH Method? Windows rsh- command line utility is useless, in my opinion.

Do you mean Remote Shell? Do you want to monitor rshd daemon on remote machine? Or do you want to execute some comands on remote system using rsh? I do not think rsh test method will be implemented. We are going to implement "SSH script" test method to access *nix servers using ssh, but I am not sure when it will be implemented.

If you want to monitor *nix servers (check processes, services, system load, etc), you may install Remote Monitoring Agent for FreeBSD, Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, Solaris on that particular system: http://www.ks-soft.net/hostmon.eng/rma-unix/index.htm

Sorry for ill-posed question. Of course, I mean the ability to send a command to be executed on the remote network devices, and to retrieve its output; like http://www.activexperts.com/activmonitor/functions/rsh/ does, for example.
SSH script test method will be enough, I hope. But it is a bit complicated as for the internal networks, isn't it? I Should admit, SSH method it was my second wish.

I've been testing a lot of NT based net monitors, and, I believe, Advanced Host Monitor is the best. It would be very nice to do all the necessary tests with your excellent software.

Thanks and Regards,

Probably we implement both test methods in version 7
